Defensive publication

ABSTRACT

CERTAIN HALOGENATED COMPOUNDS REPRESENTED BY THE FORMULA   WHEREIN CNH2N-2 IS A SATURATED HYDROCARBON CHAIN; N REPRESENTS AN INTEGER SELECTED FROM 2 THROUGH 4; M AND M&#39;&#39; EACH REPRESENTS AN INTEGER SELECTED FROM 1, 2 OR 3, PROVIDED THAT SUM OF M+M&#39;&#39; AT LEAST EQUAL TO 4; AND X AND Y REPRESENT CHLORO OR BROMO, ARE PREPARED BY REDUCTION OF THE CORRESPONDING DIKETONES. THE HALOGENATED ARALKANOLS EFFECTIVELY CONTROL THE GROWTH OF MICROORGANISMS.
